Pennsylvania Points

All of the artifacts on this page are from a Pennsylvania collection that I acquired recently.  There was 4 boxes of artifacts, in the bottom of one of the boxes was a piece of paper that said "Somerset Co. PA." .  The finder put a small cataloguing sticker on each of the artifacts.  I am not very familiar with the typology of the region, so please forgive my vague descriptions.  I guarantee the items to be authentic, and if you have further questions, please don't hesitate to email or call me.  - Matt 

 

Prices are not set in stone,  make me an offer!

Lot 0 - These are a few of the better pieces.  Notice, there are two hardstone pieces in here as well.  There is a broken bannerstone (with tallied end) and a broken Expanded center gorget.  Lot 1 -  
Lot 2 -  Miscellaneous points.  Lot 3 -  Common points.
Lot 4 - This group is primarily triangular points.  One of them (top row, to the right) somebody glued a fixture on to wear on a necklace.   Lot 5 - Assorted mixture of points.  
Lot 6 - Stemmed & Side Notched Points.   Lot 7 - Hafted Scrapers 
Lot 8 - Bifurcated base points.    Box of points.  These vary, broken and complete.  I didn't look through it real good to see if there are any gems, but I doubt it. I'm not sure, but "guesstimate" that there are at least a few hundred points in this box.
